Malcolm Turnbull is streets ahead of Tony Abbott, page-51

sailorgirl,

"I really do believe that the last 2 years have matured Abbott hugely.
What he experienced as being PM - then being dumped - picking himself up and staying on track would be beyond most of us.
Tony Abbott of 2018 would be a far more mature and superior PM than he was 2 years ago."

Tony Abbott has been a politicians for years and have been in parliament for years, both in Opposition and in government. He has had more than enough time to "mature".

This rubbish about he has "matured" in the 2 years since being sacked by a majority of his parliamentary colleagues is beyond the pale.

Abbott will of course say he will be a better prime minister the next time around, he wants his job back, and now is blowing his own trumpet again !!

He lied to the Australian people in the 2013 election with his false promises, why should anyone believe him now.
